Svmuu reported that an advisor to Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri revealed that on Sunday local time, Berri informed the Trump administration that Hezbollah is ready for an immediate and full ceasefire with Israel and pledged to ensure the implementation of the ceasefire agreement. The escalating conflict in Lebanon threatens to undermine hopes of reaching an agreement to end the war with Iran, especially as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatens to attack Beirut.
Iran's Tasnim News Agency reported on Monday that Iran's negotiation team has suspended talks with the U.S. through mediators, in protest of Israel's actions in Lebanon. Berri is one of the most powerful Shiite political figures in Lebanon and has close ties with Hezbollah, although U.S. and Israeli officials question whether he can truly ensure Hezbollah's compliance with the rules.
